Credits/Backstory:

The Mox recorded this at the same session as “Slow Down Time.” They were both sorta-demos, but I like the way the band plays on them, especially drummer Jon Peckman.
Also featuring J. Java, electrical bass guitar, DickNeal, electrical guitar, and me, JV, acoustical rhythm guitar and vocal.

Lyrics:

I recall your skin soft and special to my touch
your generous hands and liquid thighs
but now you’re turned around
you’re all turned around
and your girlish charms are an ocean gone dry.

Poetry and songs were the language that you loved
words were treasures truly prized
but now you’re turned around
you’re all turned around
and your voice is false, a weapon in disguise.

Everybody falls from grace
we plummet from the sky
you lead me to this crazy place
where all I do everyday is lie.

Every wound you cut is a vision come to me
every gash a bright surprise
I got turned around
I’m all turned around
and I’m bended low, crippled/broken, compromised
I’m still searching for the truth in your dark eyes.

I’m turned around.
